How to start

If you tap the 'MyTasks' icon on your iPhone you will see the startup screen with the latest selected sort criteria.

If this is the first time you start MyTasks, you will get the 'Target-date' view. The sort-criteria could be choosen by selecting any of the tabs on the bottom of the main-screen.
MyTasks always remembers the last choice. You will notice sometimes that the start-icon would come with a number (in a bag) to indicate the number of open tasks. This behaviour could be defined in the settings

Splash

This is the splash-screen shown while loading the application.

As the app loads quite fast you will not have too much time looking at this nice screen, so its shown here in this help...
